Thank you.

These petitions really don't solve anything, and are an unproductive waste of time.

If you want something done about it, bring it up at the team forum, or to FIRST directly - complaining here won't help you.

If people are going to make agreements, this thread, this forum, your team, my team, Dean Kamen, or George Bush won't make a single difference. They will do it anyway.

I suggest everyone calm down, and make yor own decisions on how you want to play the game. I know my team will play the game to the fullest strategic ability we can, but I am not going to spew rhetoric to other teams in an attempt to enforce MY code of conduct onto other people.

This thread, and others like it, don't serve any purpose. The power to draw a line between what is wrong and what is right is vested soley in the individual. Anyone that thinks it is their duty to be a moral paladin, holding aloft the banners of Gracious Professionalism, needs to get a reality check. Complaining and agreeing with eachother here makes little difference out there.

(Oh, and a little FYI: if you don't like the way those teams that rig matches operate, don't select them as alliance partners, that will get your message across in a tangible manner)
